Testing Apple Pay and Google Pay

Apple Pay and Google Pay are taken through our own wallet integration, and each payment is passed to the payment provider as a network token. So the wallets work with any connected provider that supports network tokens, and you test them the same way whichever provider that is.

Real payments can’t be made through Apple Pay or Google Pay in a sandbox. Each wallet has its own test setup, below.

Switching them on

At least one of the account’s connected payment providers that takes cards must support network tokens. Then:

1. In Merchant Setup, open Customise Checkout. Enable Apple Pay / Google Pay support is available when a connected provider supports network tokens.
2. Turn it on to show Apple Pay and Google Pay in the list of payment methods.
3. If more than one connected provider supports network tokens, choose which one takes Apple Pay and Google Pay payments.
4. Enter the Merchant Country / Legal Name. The legal name is shown to customers in the Apple Pay or Google Pay payment sheet.
5. Save the changes.

Apple Pay

Testing Apple Pay needs a physical Apple device (iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch) with Developer Mode on. It can’t be tested in a simulator or on a device that isn’t Apple’s.

1. Turn on Developer Mode on the test device.
2. Set the device region to a country that supports Apple Pay.
3. Sign out of your Apple Account and sign in with a sandbox tester account.
4. Add Apple’s test cards to the Wallet by hand.
5. When asked for a one-time verification code, use 111111.

Google Pay

Google Pay can be tested on an Android device with Chrome 59 or later and Google Play services 16.0.0 or later, or in a desktop browser.

1. Make sure at least one card or PayPal account is stored in Google Pay or your Google account.
2. Join the Google FPAN test card suite group to get test cards.
3. The wallet buttons appear when you test against your sandbox account.
